Taking after the match, Lue admitted that the Clippers' identity has been that they remain ‘soft’ throughout the campaign, something he would like to change going into the playoffs.
“Right now do we have an identity? Um, I think, yeah, we’re soft,” he said while talking to the media. “That can be an identity, if you want to call it that. Like, we got to be tougher, mentally and physically. But we do have an identity.
“When we were 26-5, we had a great identity. So, you can’t pick and choose when you want to lead. You can’t pick and choose when you’re going to have an identity. You can’t pick and choose when you want to do things the right way. So, just do the right things every night and everything else will fall in order.
“And, so, yes, we do have an identity. We got to get back to that, because we’ve had it. But when you lose games, it’s easy to go the other way and we’re not going to do that and I’m not going to let our team do that.
“And I’m tough-minded. I’ve been through everything, and so have these guys. ... So, we have an identity, but right now our identity has been shaken because we’re not winning and we’re not doing things the right way consistently.”
